Background: This study aims to explore research hotspots and development trends in molecular imaging of glioma from 2014 to 2024.
Methods: A total of 2957 publications indexed in the web of science core collection (WoSCC) were analyzed using bibliometric techniques. To visualize the research landscape, co-citation clustering, keyword analysis, and technological trend mapping were performed using CiteSpace and Excel.
We proposed a novel, to the best of our knowledge, triple-pulse dual-wavelength 1645 nm and 822 nm laser for differential absorption lidar (DIAL) to measure methane and water vapor simultaneously. The laser is developed with a 1064 nm triple-pulse high-energy fiber-slab hybrid laser amplifier as the pump source. Seeder-injected optical parametric oscillator (OPO) is designed to generate narrow linewidth and single-frequency 1645 nm pulses, while optical parametric amplification (OPA) and second-harmonic generation (SHG) are utilized to amplify the signal pulses and generate 822 nm pulses.

We summarize in this review the recent key progress in the NHC-catalyzed electrophilic activation of carbonyl compounds for the regioselective functionalization of saccharides, enantioselective construction of heterocycles, and asymmetric synthesis of axially and planar chiral molecules.

It has good biological and behavioral characteristics and occasionally has malignant characteristics, such as multiple intracranial lesions, postoperative progression or recurrence, meningeal diffusion, and metastasis. We present a non-infant with DIG who underwent tumor progression.

Moreover, current therapies primarily targeting inflammation can lead to immunosuppression-related complications. Human amniotic epithelial stem cells (hAESCs), which exhibit low immunogenicity and ethical acceptability, have gained attention as potential therapeutics.

As proof of concept, reduction of an analogue yielded the corresponding -chiral 2-phosphinyl imidazole ligand, which was shown to induce high enantioselectivity in the formation of axially chiral molecules synthesized via Pd-catalyzed Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling.

This emphasizes the importance of a correct preoperative diagnosis of SFT versus MA.
Objective: In this study, investigated the differences in imaging characteristics between SFT and MA to improve the accuracy of preoperative imaging diagnosis of SFT.

Desmoplastic infantile tumors (DITs) are rare benign intracranial tumors in infants with benign biological behavior and rare malignant transformation characteristics. We present a DIT case that underwent malignant transformation and metastasis. A 6-year-old girl presented with DITs and underwent surgical resection.

Background: Chlorantraniliprole (CAP) is a diamide insecticide with high efficacy against many pest insects, including the black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon. Agrotis ipsilon is a serious pest causing significant yield losses in crops. Glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs) belong to a family of metabolic enzymes that can detoxify a wide range of pesticides.

Background: Preeclampsia complicated with hypofibrinogenemia is a rare disorder. We report two cases of severe preeclampsia complicated with hypofibrinogenemia followed by postpartum haemorrhage (PPH).
Case: Two women diagnosed as preeclampsia and hypofibrinogenemia developed severe PPH after undergoing Cesarean sections.
Objective: To provide comprehensive evidence for the anti-cancer cachexia effect of Jianpi Decoction (JP) and to explore its mechanism of anti-cancer cachexia.
Methods: A mouse model of colon cancer (CT26)-induced cancer cachexia (CC) was used to investigate the anti-CC effect of JP combined with medroxyprogesterone acetate (MPA). Thirty-six mice were equally divided into 6 groups: normal control, CC, MPA (100 mg•kg•d), MPA + low-dose (20 mg•kg•d) JP (L-JP), MPA + medium-dose (30 mg•kg•d) JP (M-JP), and MPA + high-dose (40 mg•kg•d) JP (H-JP) groups.
Accessory spleen (AS) refers to single or multiple splenic tissues which appear outside the relative normal spleen position results from embryonic dysplasia similar in structure and function to the spleen. AS is frequently observed in the splenic hilus and or adjacent to the tail of pancreas, and only a few cases occurred in the pelvic cavity. We present an extremely rare AS case in urachus, which was initially considered as an urachal neoplasm revealed on CT images with big mass.

Craniopharyngioma (CP) is a rare benign tumor that develops from the residual epithelial cells of the craniopharynx, accounting for < 5% of intracranial tumors. It is common for CPs to grow in the sellar/parasellar region and extend suprasellar. The pathology classifies CPs into adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACP) and papillary craniopharyngiomas (PCP).

Methods: Differential expression analysis between PC9 and gefitinib-resistant PC9 (PC9GR) cell samples was performed to screen GefR-related lncRNAs and mRNAs based on the GSE34228 dataset. These lncRNAs, mRNAs, and their corresponding microRNAs (miRNAs) were used to construct the GefR-related network and PPI networks.

Chlorantraniliprole (CAP) is an insecticide widely used to control the small white butterfly (SWB), Pieris rapae. Exposure to CAP can cause oxidative injury in SWB; however, it is unclear if antioxidant enzymes are involved in the defense process. In this study, a thioredoxin peroxidase (PrTPX1) gene was identified from SWB by using a homology search method.
